No ....your bag is very very very likely NOT a fake. Tano is moving away from the graffiti tag to a small inner tag. My Baby Daddy has one of those types of tags.

I was thinking about getting the Minilisa in Blueberry for fall, but now I'm leaning towards getting another boogie bucket...and my first boogie bucket hasn't arrived yet. OMG I'M OBSESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am one sick woman! LOL

No, Crystalina.....you'd be obsessed if you carried them both at the same time!

Thanks to you both, as well, for making me feel better. I personally (as I know many tPF'ers agree) do not believe in supporting the fake bag industry, so I felt horrified that (a) I was taken, and (b) I inadvertently supported that industry. Glad to hear that I didn't. Whew!

heres a photo of my gorgeous boogie in wine.

(The blue Boogie is also FULL of my stuff...and the apricot Boogie just has stuffing/tissue paper...but you get the general idea!) Nite nite, my friends!

voodoo I didn't know you got a new boogie congradulations she's stunning!

I officially became a member of this club at 5:38 Central Time with the addition of a Black Boogie Bucket to my Tano Family! I currently have VVGG in Green, a Lauren in Red and a Butane Jane in Dark Brown. I think it might be time to take some pics...kinda like a family photo! My husband said that I was so excited when I got the Boogie that I should put a sign out in the yard that says "It's a New Bag!" I thought that was pretty funny and a good idea :)

I'm so jealous of you girls who got the Boogie Bucket in Beaujolais. I only discovered Tano last season, and got a Blossom Buddy in Blueprint Blue and the Kitty Crowbar in Congo Green. I love them both, but the Beaujolais Boogie feels like the one that got away.

I've been scoping out a used one, but no luck. I'm wondering how the new Pomegranate will compare, but it seems more of an orange-red than a blue-red.

The tag on my French Nanny is a small white square, frankly I like the old style tags better. Oh well, it's just a tag and at least you know your bag is not fake.

Here are my two Tano Boogie Buckets. I have a Lawn Green and a
Watermelon pink. I do have four Tano Bags and I love my Boogie's
the most. It is a really functional bag for me.

I really like that lawn boogie bucket ! The watermelon is not bad either, such a happy summery colour!!

How can anyone not love the Boogie Bucket??!! Now, I ask you, really!!

Liz, your Boogies are gorgeous!

For those of you considering to invest in a Boogie... It is the most comfortable bag on the shoulder! Aside from the aesthetics of this bag, I would say that its second best feature is the strap! The under part of the strap (where it contacts the shoulder) is made of a suede-like material that creates a sort of adhesion to the garment or the bare skin, friction, if you will. So it never falls off!

And they compliment each other perfectly!
